A new & different job (?) in Kuwait

22 years ago
Hello, I will be moving to Kuwait city, from California, USA to teach gymnastics to children at the Little Gym of Kuwait--of all things. I should arrive sometime before Jan. 24, 2004, and I'll be there for at least two years. However, this all depends on agreeing on some final details in my contract. This negotiation process has been creeping along for six month. The gym owners (they're Kuwaitis) seem implicitly honest, warm and very accomodating; but they seem to expect me to accept a lot of good faith arrangements without question. I have never taught nor negotiated a contract in a foreign country before. What should I expect from the Kuwaitis.

Also, I am a older or--should I say a mature male teacher who will be working with young childern and there parents, mostly mothers. I'd apreciate any thoughts or comments on what I should expect.

Also, is it easy to obtain popular english--read America-- sci-fiction and music in Kuwait, or should I bring my collection of vintages Author C. Clarks and Edgar Rice Borrows, etc.

And, what's the banking situation like... That's all for now.
